    I love this camera

    After couple of months researching, and reading up as much of professional reviews and customers reviews as I can find, my main requirement this time for a new DSLR is that it must be a full frame camera. It came down to either this Sony a7iii or a7riii. I finally settled on the a7iii. The main reason is that I don’t need the extra megapixel that came with the 7r since most of my photo shoots will be for family functions, street shootings, nature, and astrophotography. When comparing Sony a7iii to other full frame, I looked at the functions, features, imaging quality, and last but not least, price. Since I am not a professional photographer and I don’t rely on my camera for a living, I lean toward a mid entry camera. When comparing the similarly priced Nikon, Canon and others, Sony stood out from the rest of the pack. I bought a package with 24-105mm OSS lens. I can honestly say that this camera did not disappoint in term of features and pictures quality. Even when shooting under low lighting, the images are sharp and beautiful. The included battery last entire day of shooting with plenty of juice left at the end of the day. Charging the battery through the camera can take up to 5 or 6 hours. I recommend purchasing a Sony external charger. Charging time takes only 2.5 hours to fully charge a fully drained battery. One thing that threw me off first time using it is that any part in the viewing screen that the camera think it’s too bright or can be over exposed, that part would have black and white diagonal lines through them. No where in the instruction or in any of the reviews did they mention that. I almost panicked the first time I noticed that and didn’t know what caused it. It wasn’t until I started playing with the iso, f-stop and speed, that I noticed the lines went away. So just because you see it, it doesn’t necessarily mean that your photo will be over exposed, it just to let you know that that part of the photo is brighter than the rest, and you can compensate as necessary. With the 24-102 mm OSS zoom lens, I was able to take photo of my daughter soccer game, and crop it later to close up on the actions. Even when cropped, the photos still remained sharp. Everyday street shooting, family gatherings, evening time by the firelight, the images are stunningly beautiful. The viewing screen is a bit small for me. When trying to focus on a distant star through the telescope, it is a bit difficult. But that is normal for any DSLR. My plan is to purchase an external monitor to attach to the Sony to make that task a bit easier. One thing I came to love is the button customization. You can go online to see how you can customize the buttons to do what you wanted it to do. Once you get used to it, you will wonder how you ever lived without it in the first place. Like anything else, there is a bit of a learning curve. I’m still learning it. To me that’s part of the fun. I haven’t played with the video mode much, but the quality of the video I’ve taken so far was quite impressive. It definitely rival that of some dedicated video camera. Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase. If you don’t need or want a full frame camera, you can definitely save some money by going with the other format DSLR. But if you want full frame and with DSLR features, and superb quality, you can’t go wrong with this Sony.

    Wonderful Hybrid Full-Frame Camera

    If you're still waiting for the A7sIII to come out, this is a great solution to your problem. This camera has wonderful low light capabilities and is a dream to work with when it comes to shooting real estate photography. RAW photos combined with 5-9 bracketed allows for wonderful HDR photography. For video purposes, I've paired the Sony XLR-K2M by connecting it via the Multi-Interface Shoe Adapter - allows me to capture 2 channels of audio and feeds directly off the battery. Lastly, I'd have to say the biggest improvement with Sony's line of mirrorless cameras has to be the extended battery life...now I've taken it a step further and added a 2nd battery using the Sony VG-C3EM Vertical Grip. This gives me hours of usage for both 4K video and photography. All in all, it's a great camera and I'm glad I purchased it when I did. I found an excellent open-box deal down in Fort Lauderdale and saved 25% off MSRP. The lens I'm using is the SONY 16-35mm f/4, I opted for the f/4 over the f/2.8 because I felt the reason I'm purchasing this camera in the first place is for low light sensitivity, so I just push the ISO up a bit more and it works just fine. Thanks for reading.

    Sony A7III

    The Sony a7iii, paired with a 50mm lens, is fantastic for both cinematography and photography. Its versatility and wide range of settings make it a dream to work with, especially when experimenting with different shots and lighting. The image quality is impressive, delivering sharp, detailed photos and smooth video that brings cinematic visuals to life. However, I’ve found it to be somewhat fragile, handling it with extra care is a must. Additionally, I’ve noticed occasional lag, which can interrupt the flow when I’m in the middle of capturing a moment. Overall, though, it’s a solid performer with excellent features.
